A ugandan farmer wishes to continue the breeding program to improve his heard of cows further When he is choosing which cows to breed mkilk production is an important quality Give two other qualitiy?
#1. Ease of calving. You would want to keep cows who have a history of being able to calve without help as opposed to those who always need help during calving. #2. Size of calves and viability. You would want to keep cows that generally calve larger calves, as well as those who rarely loose calves due to small birth size or general weakness of newborn calves. Over time your herd will become generally more robust.
Do you have to ween a cow?
You have to wean a CALF, not a cow. Cows are mature female bovines that have already been long sinced weaned from their mothers. But to answer the question, yes especially if you want to keep getting calves from your cows.
When do you separate cattle?
Whenever you need to separate them. Honestly, it's your choice when you want to separate them. But note that in terms of cow-calf herds, you need to separate calves from cows when the calves are around 6 months of age. It may be a good idea to separate bull calves and steer calves and their mommas from the cows that have heifer calves at their side a month or two prior to weaning. Heifers and steers can be together, but you need to separate bull calves from heifers and keep them separate during the weaning process. This minimizes the risk of these young bulls breeding an early-maturing heifer and getting her bred by accident. Cows should be separated from bulls (NOT vice-versa, as it's more dangerous to separate bulls from the cows) after 60 to 80 days have passed since the bull was put in with the cows. Separate cull cows from the main cowherd the day you are going to sell them or, if you want to fatten up these cull cows, a few weeks prior to selling them. Before winter sets in, separate thin cows from the fat or normally-conditioned cows and put them with your bred heifer herd.
What if a steer is suckling from a pregnant cow?
Depends on whether that steer is that cow's offspring and hasn't been weaned yet, or if you failed to keep the calves separated from the cows for several weeks to several months and one of them has latched on to this cow. If the latter is the case, separate the calves from the cows and leave them separated for at least 6 weeks, if not more.

What rhymes with the promises of some calves?
Oh, dude, you're hitting me with some deep poetry vibes! So, technically, "halfs" rhymes with "calves," but like, who even says "halfs" these days? Maybe throw in "laughs" or "graphs" for some extra pizzazz. Keep slinging those rhymes, my poetic friend!

How do you keep beef cattle from producing milk after calving?
You do not! In a beef herd the mother (dam) is kept for many years to breed the 'beef' offspring that spend 7 to 9 months sucking mothers milk and grazing. This is a suckler herd. A beef breeder. Answer 2: Like the above poster said, you do NOT keep beef cows from producing milk after calving. However, the only reason you should let beef cows (or a beef cow) dry up is if her calf died and there is no other orphan calf she should or can foster. Other than that, beef cows should not be dried up because they have a calf to nurse, which needs their milk in order to grow into a healthy heifer/bull/steer. Beef cows are not like dairy cows where their calves are taken away from them at birth: with beef cows, the calves stay on their mommas until it's time to wean them at 6 to 10 months of age.
What does get along little doggies mean?
Actually a "dogie" refers to a motherless calf. In bovine terms females are called heifers until they give birth then they are cows. Male cattle are bulls unless they have been castrated then the are called steers. Steers are where most of the beef we consume comes from. Ranchers keep a number of cows depending on how much grazing land they have. A bull or two is left with the cows to ensure as many cows as possible have calves. Ideally ranchers want heifers, and young bull calves are turned into steers and then are sent to market in a year.
